Let me sing to you the praises of peanut butter. It is the stuff of life, the daily bread that nourishes me morning, midday, and evening. The queen of breakfast, the leading light of lunch, the hero of dinner. Its smoothness and richness are unparalleled. One can only surmise it is what the Greek gods ate that gave them their immortality. It is a delight, a versatile icon, a plat du jour but for all the days, a reason to get up in the morning, and a shining beacon of deliciousness.

We met late in life, peanut butter and I, when I was already an adult, and what a shame it is. To have been deprived of this goddess during my childhood, not even knowing of its existence. But oh, will we make it to the end together.

In their modesty, these seeds that grow underground show us that the marvel of life need not come from up high, nor need to be complex. Simplicity is fulfilling too.

#peanut butter #food #vegan food #yeah tagging this vegan food 'cause it's about time people finally learn it's sometimes just peanut butter; doesn't need to be fancy #yes this is an ode to peanut butter #I love peanut butter #sometimes I worry that in combination with my salted peanuts I might be eating too much of it #is there such a thing though? #writing #my writing #a story every day #20 february #2024

History of National Love Your Pet Day

Pets have been a part of human life for thousands of years, and it’s only becoming more popular and common to own one. Animals have been right by our side ever since the first moment of civilization. Consider the fact that wolves lived among humans for centuries, and there’s proof of humans and dogs and cats being together as long as 12,000 years ago.

In the 1600s, European royalty began keeping toy dog breeds. Pet birds were the pet of choice in Spain among all classes well into the 1960s. It may not be common knowledge regarding the person that started National Love Your Pet Day, but the masses began celebrating it and bringing it to light on a wide scale in the early 2000s.

National Love Your Pet Day Timeline

10,000 BC Wolves become domesticated

The first animal believed to transform from the wild state to the domesticated state is the wolf, the predecessor to the modern-day dog. It is believed that humans would find baby wolves and take them home to take care of them and train them.

7500 BC Cats may be domesticated

While it has been long believed that cats were domesticated in Ancient Egypt, recent information shows that it is much earlier and in the Near East.

3000 BC Parrots are domesticated

Colorful parrots are domesticated by Ancient Romans and also kept as pets in tropical places such as Brazil. They won’t be present in Europe until several hundred years later.

3100 BC Dogs are kept by people in Ancient Egypt

While their relationship is probably not as much like pets to humans but more like working dogs to owners, the Ancient Egyptians keep dogs nearby to help with tasks such as hunting and guarding. They may have even named them and put collars on them.

1850s Oldest-known photograph of a dog is taken

Ever since the invention of the camera, humans have enjoyed their pets by taking photos of them and with them. The first known photo of pet is titled Poodle with Bow, on Table and will later sell at a Sotheby’s auction for more than $8000 in 2009.
